| no partners | | This was the 6th and last hike that I did over 8 days while on a roadtrip into Utah, Nevada, and Idaho.
I did this one as an out-and-back hike from the Timpooneke Campground/TH.
Most of the hike was a class 1 walk, but there was a bit of class 2 scrambling toward the end.
This is a great hike and I really enjoyed it. I usually don't feel that way about a hike that is fairly heavily traveled.
I did not see many people until I got to a saddle just past where the Aspen Grove Trail meets the Timpooneke Trail. So I guess most people were coming from the Aspen Grove side.
Scenery was great for the entire hike, and Mount Timp is an impressive and dramatic looking peak.
If I lived in the area I am sure that I would do this one at least a couple of times a year.
One thing that struck me was how clean the trail was; by that I mean there was virtually no trash, food waste, etc to be seen. There weren't even any cairns built. If only Arizona trails were so pristine. |
